I feel that John chapter 1 not only lets us know that God has been, is and always will be, but Jesus is letting us know especially ministers that it is not about the individual but about the one who sent the individual, which is God. The revelations on how to live comes from God, not man; and when we speak, we should speak his word and not our own.

I think that God wanted us to see that he has been here, so he brought John here to teach us in letting us know about his word. Because what John said was true, and came from God. In that God and Jesus are the same. God is spirit and he sent Jesus down to walk in man’s body.

Jesus was the spoken word of God according to John's revelation. That simply tells us that Jesus has been in existence (verse 30) from the creation of the World. In the beginning was Jesus (word), and Jesus (word) was with God (His father) and Jesus (word) was God. Jesus is God's own very nature manifested in the human flesh (verse 14) that lived and lives amongst us today.

I believe it for exactly what it says. Jesus is the TRUE AND LIVING GOD. There is only one church he, Jesus is coming after and that is the true church of Christ. It’s time to admit who he is and let’s get some people saved to increase this kingdom. To see our families saved let’s stop tearing him apart and get the power back in our church.

What is the difference between “in the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God” and “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God's”. The second would correspond with Proverbs 8, and denotes two separate and distinct entities. Whether Jesus' beginning was from everlasting does not matter. What matters is that he has a beginning in God terms. Let us create man in our own image does not mean trinity. It simply goes to prove the point that God will not do a new thing without first revealing it to His prophets, angels (remember there was no issue of fallen angels then!). God has asked - who is my equal and to whom can you compare me? John 10:30 is often quoted out of context. One has to read the whole chapter to understand what Jesus meant. Simply put God gave Him the authority to exercise that power on His behalf.

@ grant's comment on verse 18- 1. no one has seen god at anytime is referring to jehovah god the father, which is a spirit(john 4:24) and they that worship him must worship him in truth and in spirit. 2. jesus christ is the flesh part of the trinity that can be seen(john 1:14).

@ paul's comment about the apostle john- 1. the book of john portrays jesus as the son of god(john 1:34)or god manifested in the flesh(john 1:1,14). 2. john was one of the 3 inner circle with christ during his earthly ministry along with james and peter(mark 14:33) 3. john is special to born again christians because he is in typology a picture of the new testament church. 4. this is why john is found with his head on the bosom of the saviour and referred to by jesus always as the beloved(john 21:20-25). 5. other than the pauline epistles john gives the best scriptures on new testament salvation and eternal security of the believer.

@ balaji's comment on verse 39- 1. the best reference to your question of where was jesus staying is found in john 1:28. 2. bethabara which is bethany, which means city of dates.
BALAJI's comment about verse 39 on 2/03/2013, 8:33am...
Actually it is not clearly told, where he stayed. Where did he stay? Anybody please give me the answer with very clear reference, not a vague one.
Baltimore's comment about verse 1 on 1/30/2013, 5:50pm...
Jesus Christ is God, and is the only God. Unless one has an understanding of the Scripture they will continue to misinterpret the Word of God. It was necessary for Jesus to open the understanding of the disciples before He ascended back into heaven after His resurrection. So it is today a true revelation of God will put to rest a lot of confusion regarding the Godhead and the none Biblical doctrine of the trinity.
Paul's comment on 1/25/2013, 6:16am...
I think that John was very special to Jesus and so, he was kept till the last time when Jesus appeared to him at the Isle of Patmos. Jesus entrusted his Mother to John. John was everywhere Jesus was, he was the most loyal of all the Disciples. That is why Jesus revealed to him alone the Kingdom of Heaven (Book of Revelation), because he knew that he was the most loyal follower of Christ who will pass on the word to the generations to come, in words which will be as loyal as his love for Jesus. John’s Gospel stands out of the other three. John’s Gospel is all about the word and the Holy Spirit, like Milk and Honey to our soul.
Thomas's comment about verse 6 on 1/24/2013, 5:02am...
God still sends men today. No man can carry the word except. He is sent by God. Just as John was sent by God to bear witness of the light which is Jesus Christ, we also are sent to represent him. The question is how can we unless we are truly sent by God?

Perhaps there is one sin from which has two causes and Three basic pathways:
1. Unbelief (hath God said?) Beleiving A Lie John 16:9;
2. Deception, i.e. NutraSweet™(deficiency) Proverbs 12:20;
3. Pride Isaiah 14:13 Proverbs10:13 (Self-centered) cancer, Toxicity;
4. 1 John 2:15, 16, all problems are spiritual and deal with RELATIONSHIP. Missing the mark John 17:3, Matthew 7:21, Genesis 15:1. Thus also natural realm there is only one sickness; Cellular Malfunction i.e. Dr. Otto Warburg's famous speech while Accepting Nobel Peace Prize in 1931 on cancer and its Prime cause due to Deficiency of oxygen thus Toxicity in dna i.e. Non efficient toxic city, mass production of...;
5. Seven major pathways: Nutrition, Toxicity, ....

I don't like when you edit the word of God. Let’s leave it in its original form, we don't need to be taking away or adding to the word of God or giving one’s own interpretation.
Grant's comment on 1/19/2013, 10:47am...
Trinitarians, How do you explain verse 18 where it reads : nobody has seen God at any time? Who was the guy that was tortured to death, and why were there are 3 crosses if nobody could see the guy in the middle. Remember, don’t try to change the words "at any time".
Peter Ejike's comment about verse 46 on 1/13/2013, 4:48pm...
I really felt good with the answer Nathanael got and also my greatest happiness is when Jesus asks Nathanael if he believe because Jesus said to him he saw him under the fig tree? And Jesus also promising us that today we have seeing him and we shall continue to see greater things in our life, what a wonderful savior. Thank you Jesus. We love you. From the family of Mr and Mrs Peter EJIKE.

Following John, I strongly believe that Jesus is God.

Thank God.
Linda Sumlin's comment on 1/05/2013, 9:25pm...
Wow I'm just so thankful for Jesus’ obedience to his father for us. In the beginning was the word and the word was with God and the word was God, I started thinking about how we say around Christmas time Jesus is the reason for the season, but in reality we are the only reason he came to earth for, to show us the way then he died and rose on the third day with all power for us. I just want to say thank you God for you son Jesus, for everything he did and is still doing for us.
Lawis's comment on 12/30/2012, 11:29am...
The commencement verse of the Gospel of John 1, says it all, that God has been from the beginning of creation and that the Word was with God, and that the Word was God, and that by Him all things came into being and without there was nothing that was made except through Him. It is in a sense that signifies that God and His Word are one, and that even though the world had a beginning, God never began because He has always been. And for Him to be whom the scripture says that He is, He must have the ability to commune with His creation- hence, Jesus Christ fittingly is the Word of God. These are mysteries and revelations. And it demands humility to be able to get into the different levels of knowledge that are inherent to that. And whenever a weapon is designed, put together or as it were, fashioned against you and I as Christians, please understand that such weapons are part of God's creation, and, in so far as we walk in love, and conduct ourselves, in line with the dictates of God's Word, then God, in His faithfulness guarantees us continual safety. And that is one of those things that make Christianity greatly friendly and highly inviting.

Christ our lord was there from the beginning. He is the reason for our being. I will trust and continue to trust in him.
ERROL BRITTON's comment on 12/21/2012, 11:10pm...
John informs us that the word was GOD; and he made all things; then the word became flesh, after making everything and live in the world but they knew him not; nor accept him. GOD who came down and live among us then as JESUS, allowed himself to be crucified, so we have a chance to enjoy everlasting life that was made for us all. John 1:10 state he was in the world; and the world was made by him, and they knew him not. GOD has continually given us his unconditional love; and a lot has failed to accept it; and he is still trying by using various people and methods. Those of us who have accepted him, he has given us power to become sons of GOD. Let us worship him, and get the power to do the greater job; from the example HE has set us; ASKING for his continuous blessings and revelations amen...

I think that darkness can't handle light.
Margarita's comment about verse 10 on 12/14/2012, 7:38pm...
It breaks my heart to no end when I see that people who know the truth of who God is, are still today rejecting Him by their evil deeds. Rejecting the Great Mighty and Wonderful God that made us and all that is in this world. God who stooped down from heaven and became a human being. One day, He took all the ugliness of the world to the cross, as our sacrificial lamb, so we can learn how to live again. Yet the people still Crucify HIM ALL DAY LONG! But one day Jesus will come back so we can live in eternal peace.. Amen!
Enoch Gyas's comment on 12/07/2012, 6:58am...
John 1 reveals to me that JESUS is unquestionable and incontestable GOD. I love Him, He is the Lord of my life.
